Granted: 2007-01-24
Abstract: A medical device assembly and method provides an ultrasound transducer mounted onto a delivery member, such the elongate body of a catheter shaft, without a support structure bridging between a separation area between the transducer and the shaft. Mounting flanges are extend from either end of the transducer and are mounted at first and second locations along the catheter shaft such that the transducer is suspended over the catheter shaft between those mounting locations. The flanges may be connected by an intermediate member, with the transducer supported on either an outer surface or an inner surface of the intermediate member. The intermediate member may also provide a housing with an enclosed space that houses the transducer, wherein the flanges extend from the housing for mounting to the catheter shaft. In an overall tissue coupling system, a cylindrical ultrasound transducer are mounted onto a catheter shaft by use of such mounting flanges extending from the transducer's ends and such that the ultrasound transducer is enclosed within a balloon also provided on the catheter. The balloon is ideally adapted to engage a circumferential region of tissue where a pulmonary vein extends from an atrium such that the cylindrical ultrasound transducer is able to couple through the balloon inflation fluid and to the circumferential region of tissue surrounding the balloon for ablation. The transducer is substantially "airbacked" when mounted onto a delivery member according to the present assembly and method.

Abstract: A unique HCV RNA molecule is provided having an enhanced efficiency of establishing cell culture replication. Novel adaptive mutations have been identified within the HCV non-structural region that improves the efficiency of establishing persistently replicating HCV RNA in cell culture. This self-replicating polynucleotide molecule contains, contrary to all previous reports, a 5′-NTR that can be either an A as an alternative to the G already disclosed and therefore provides an alternative to existing systems comprising a self-replicating HCV RNA molecule. The G→A mutation gives rise to HCV RNA molecules that, in conjunction with mutations in the HCV non-structural region, such as the G(2042)C/R mutations, possess greater efficiency of transduction and/or replication. These RNA molecules when transfected in a cell line are useful for evaluating potential inhibitors of HCV replication.
